Connecting the Water Line
(Plumbed models Only)
Water Supply Requirements
A cold water supply with water pressure
between 138 kPa and 827 kPa (1.4-8.4 kgf/
cm²) is required to operate the water dispenser.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low
water pressure (below 138 kPa), you can install
a booster pump to compensate for the low
pressure.
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, the water
pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs
to be a minimum of 138 kPa to 827 kPa (1.4-8.4
kgf/cm²)
WARNING
• Unplug the appliance before carrying out any
work on connecting the water line. Failure to do
so may cause electric shock.
• Only connect the water line to a cold water
supply. Failure to do so may cause the water
filter to malfunction. Water hammer (water
banging in the pipes) in house plumbing can
cause damage to appliance parts and can lead
to water leakage or flooding.
• Connecting the water line must only be installed
by a qualified plumber and in accordance with
local legislation and regulations governing water
quality.
• Connect the water supply line (for plumbed
models only) to a potable water source only.
Otherwise, impurities in the water may cause
illness.
NOTE
• This water line installation is not covered by the
appliance warranty.
Connecting to the Appliance
1
Unscrew the metal threaded collar nut at the
back of the appliance and place it over one
end of the water tube.
2
Firmly push the water tube onto the water
inlet valve and tighten up the collar nut.
Connecting to the Water Filter
This feature is only available on some models.
The methods of connection are different. One
has a threaded plastic nut fitting and the other
uses a self locking push fit connectors. The filter
is marked with the direction of the water flow from
the water tap to the appliance.
<Type 1>
1
Unscrew the threaded connector and place it
over the end of the cut section of pipe coming
from the appliance. Push the pipe over the
end of the filter that the flow arrow points to
and tighten up the threaded connector.
2
Repeat the same process on the other end
of the filter using the remainder of the water
tube.
